idc what anyone says, but jason todd would get himself legally resurrected (because as much as he hates it he kinda needs a legal identity sometimes) and not tell anyone about it, because the last thing he wants is to deal with the publicity of being bruce wayne’s adopted son again (he dealt with it before his death and hated it so much so being perceived as dead by the public was probably great for him).

jokes on him though, because barbara found out about it and told the rest of the batfam, and now he has no excuse to get out of anything.

listen to me. are you listening? tiktok is not uniquely anything when it comes to the internet. it is a tool and a platform like any other, used by all kinds of people—by nearly every kind of person or entity to whom it is available, in fact! and while what the u.s. government is doing right now to force the ownership of the company to change hands is bad and happening for the wrong reasons, to put it mildly—

claiming that the u.s. establishment is interested in shutting down tiktok because its been sooooo good and revolutionary for progressive/left-wing organizing is uhh. horse shit. that's not true. everyone uses tiktok. you, statistically, probably use tiktok. so do some of the congresspeople endorsing legislation that might end in tiktok being banned. so do right-wing influencers and terfs and trad-wives. just like everyone uses every other social media site.

don't fall into that trap of thinking that just because you and the people in your circle use this tool for good, that this tool is only used for good. it is actually just a tool for everyone!

here's an excerpt from a book called, The Wires of War, by Jacob Helberg which, if you're interested in why the u.s. congress is actually pulling this shit with tiktok, is a great read. this excerpt follows a section where Helberg described the role social media played in the Arab Spring in 2011. emphasis mine.

It would be several years before the 2016 election awakened the West to the ways in which the Internet could exploit the vulnerabilities of their societies. But for the autocrats in Bejing, Moscow, and Tehran, the Arab Spring was a technological awakening of their own. Seeing other repressive governments around the world crumble, illiberal regimes in Russia and China accelerated their treatment of the information space as a domain of war. "Tech-illiterate bureaucrats were replaced by a new generation of enforcers who understood the internet almost as well as the protesters," write Singer and Brooking in their book, LikeWar: The Weaponization of Social Media. "In truth, democratic activists had no special claim to the internet. They'd simply gotten there first. "

Zjawisko „cancel culture” – konieczna sprawiedliwość czy cenzura XXI wieku?

W ostatnich latach w przestrzeni publicznej i mediach coraz częściej mówi się o zjawisku „cancel culture”. Termin ten, choć stosunkowo nowy, odnosi się do idei bojkotu osób publicznych, marek czy organizacji, które wzbudzają kontrowersje lub działają w sposób uznany za nieetyczny. Głównym motorem „kultury unieważniania” są media społecznościowe – to właśnie tam rozgrywają się spektakularne akcje, kampanie i dyskusje, które mogą mieć ogromny wpływ na życie i kariery konkretnych osób. Cancel culture bywa postrzegana zarówno jako narzędzie społecznej sprawiedliwości, dające głos ofiarom przemocy i dyskryminacji, jak i jako forma współczesnej cenzury, prowadząca do pochopnych sądów i nagonki. Czy jest to więc niezbędny mechanizm społecznej odpowiedzialności, czy raczej zagrożenie dla powszechnej wolności słowa?

Korzenie zjawiska – czym jest kultura unieważniania?

Choć określenie „cancel culture” zdobyło popularność dopiero na przełomie drugiej dekady XXI wieku, idea bojkotu jako narzędzia społecznej presji istnieje od dawna. W przeszłości sięgano po listy otwarte, pikiety czy apele o niekupowanie produktów firm zaangażowanych w skandale. Rozwój internetu, a zwłaszcza mediów społecznościowych, sprawił jednak, że mechanizmy te przybrały nową, znacznie bardziej dynamiczną formę. Dziś wystarczy kilka wpisów na X (dawniej Twitter) czy Facebooku, aby wywołać globalną falę krytyki.

Cancel culture stała się potężnym narzędziem wpływu społecznego. Osoby publiczne są coraz częściej rozliczane za swoje wypowiedzi i zachowania niemal natychmiastowo. Z jednej strony zwiększa to poczucie sprawiedliwości i daje głos tym, którzy wcześniej byli ignorowani. Z drugiej jednak, rodzi ryzyko pochopnych osądów i efektu „śnieżnej kuli”, w którym kolejne osoby dołączają do fali krytyki bez dokładnej weryfikacji zarzutów.

Jak działa „cancel culture”?

Podstawowym narzędziem „unieważniania” są media społecznościowe – X, Instagram, TikTok czy YouTube. Ich ogromny zasięg oraz błyskawiczne tempo rozprzestrzeniania informacji sprawiają, że nawet drobny incydent może w kilka godzin stać się międzynarodowym skandalem. Publiczne oskarżenia często pojawiają się wcześniej niż jakiekolwiek formalne procedury prawne, co rodzi pytanie: czy cancel culture zastępuje system sprawiedliwości?

Kiedy oskarżenia okazują się prawdziwe, trudno nie dostrzec społecznej korzyści z nagłośnienia tematu i oddania głosu ofiarom. Jednak łatwość, z jaką informacje – często niesprawdzone – krążą w sieci, może prowadzić do niszczenia ludzi na podstawie niepełnych lub zmanipulowanych danych. Efekt „śnieżnej kuli” sprawia, że każdy kolejny głos potęguje presję, a osoby publiczne nierzadko tracą pracę, kontrakty czy reputację, zanim zarzuty zostaną rzetelnie przeanalizowane. Co więc z zasadą domniemania niewinności?

Przykłady cancel culture w praktyce

Cancel culture dotknęła wiele znanych osób, powodując zarówno uzasadnione konsekwencje, jak i kontrowersyjne decyzje. Jednym z najgłośniejszych przypadków był Kevin Spacey, którego oskarżenia o molestowanie seksualne sprawiły, że został natychmiast usunięty z obsady serialu „House of Cards”. Wytwórnia filmowa zerwała z nim kontrakty, a już ukończone filmy zostały przerobione, usuwając go z obsady. Chociaż część zarzutów wobec niego została później oddalona, jego kariera nigdy nie odzyskała wcześniejszego blasku.

Kolejnym przykładem jest J.K. Rowling, autorka serii o Harrym Potterze, której wypowiedzi dotyczące osób transpłciowych wywołały burzę w mediach społecznościowych. Wielu fanów ogłosiło bojkot jej książek, a aktorzy z filmowej adaptacji, w tym Daniel Radcliffe i Emma Watson, zdystansowali się od jej stanowiska. Choć Rowling wciąż cieszy się ogromnym sukcesem finansowym, jej reputacja w niektórych środowiskach została poważnie nadszarpnięta.

Johnny Depp również doświadczył konsekwencji cancel culture po oskarżeniach ze strony Amber Heard o przemoc domową. W wyniku publicznego nacisku aktor został usunięty z serii „Fantastyczne zwierzęta”, a jego wizerunek w Hollywood mocno ucierpiał. Późniejsze procesy sądowe wykazały, że sprawa była znacznie bardziej skomplikowana, a Heard również dopuściła się agresji. Sprawa Deppa stała się przykładem na to, jak cancel culture może zbyt pochopnie skazywać ludzi na ostracyzm bez pełnego rozpatrzenia dowodów.

Jeszcze bardziej kontrowersyjny przypadek dotyczył Kanye Westa (Ye), który po antysemickich i rasistowskich wypowiedziach stracił kluczowe kontrakty z Adidasem i Balenciagą. Jego muzyka została usunięta z wielu playlist, a jego majątek znacząco się skurczył. Przykład ten pokazuje, jak cancel culture może stać się silnym narzędziem społecznego sprzeciwu wobec nieakceptowalnych postaw.

Influencerzy również często stają się ofiarami cancel culture. James Charles, popularny wizażysta, został oskarżony o niewłaściwe kontakty z nieletnimi, co spowodowało masowy odpływ subskrybentów i utratę współprac reklamowych. Podobny los spotkał Shane’a Dawsona, który został skrytykowany za rasistowskie komentarze i kontrowersyjne treści sprzed lat. W świecie mediów społecznościowych cancel culture działa niezwykle szybko – potrafi zniszczyć karierę w ciągu kilku dni, ale czasem daje także możliwość rehabilitacji po pewnym czasie.

Szczególnym przypadkiem jest Logan Paul, który po opublikowaniu nagrania z „Lasu Samobójców” w Japonii stał się celem masowej krytyki. Stracił kontrakty reklamowe i był powszechnie potępiany, jednak dzięki przeprosinom i strategii odbudowy wizerunku udało mu się odzyskać popularność. Jego przypadek pokazuje, że w niektórych sytuacjach cancel culture nie musi oznaczać trwałego wykluczenia, lecz wymaga odpowiednich działań naprawczych.

Argumenty popierające cancel culture

Zwolennicy tego zjawiska wskazują, że cancel culture to narzędzie społecznej sprawiedliwości. Pomaga nagłośnić przypadki przemocy, dyskryminacji czy nadużyć, a także wywiera presję na osoby publiczne, by ponosiły odpowiedzialność za swoje czyny. W sytuacjach, gdy tradycyjne systemy prawne zawodzą lub działają zbyt wolno, społeczne potępienie bywa jedynym skutecznym mechanizmem sprawiedliwości.

Cancel culture może również pełnić funkcję edukacyjną – pokazuje, że pewne zachowania nie są akceptowalne i wyznacza nowe normy społeczne. Daje siłę grupom dotychczas marginalizowanym i pozwala na głośniejsze wyrażanie ich doświadczeń i obaw.

Krytyka cancel culture

Przeciwnicy cancel culture podkreślają, że mechanizm ten często działa zbyt gwałtownie i nie daje miejsca na refleksję, dialog ani możliwość rehabilitacji. Publiczne lincze sprawiają, że osoby oskarżone, nawet niesłusznie, mogą na zawsze stracić reputację i możliwości zawodowe. Wiele przypadków pokazuje, że „kasowanie” bywa nieodwracalne, nawet jeśli później okazuje się, że zarzuty były fałszywe lub przesadzone.

Dodatkowo, cancel culture może prowadzić do autocenzury. W obawie przed konsekwencjami, ludzie zaczynają unikać tematów kontrowersyjnych, co może ograniczać wolność debaty i swobodę wypowiedzi. Krytycy zwracają uwagę, że często to nie sprawiedliwość, lecz presja tłumu decyduje o czyimś „unieważnieniu”.

Sprawiedliwość czy cenzura?

Cancel culture to złożone zjawisko, które ma zarówno pozytywne, jak i negatywne konsekwencje. Z jednej strony pomaga w walce z przemocą i dyskryminacją, daje głos słabszym i podnosi standardy etyczne w życiu publicznym. Z drugiej jednak, może prowadzić do niesprawiedliwych osądów, nadmiernej reakcji i cenzury.

Kluczowe pytanie więc brzmi: jak znaleźć równowagę? Może rozwiązaniem jest większa odpowiedzialność w stosowaniu cancel culture – dokładniejsze weryfikowanie zarzutów, otwarcie na dialog i możliwość zadośćuczynienia? Społeczna presja potrafi być potężnym katalizatorem zmian, ale wymaga rozwagi i uczciwości. Tylko wtedy kultura odwoływania będzie mogła funkcjonować jako narzędzie sprawiedliwości, a nie stać się formą współczesnej cenzury.

Alligator Bites Might Never Heal, But Doechii Is Good At Holding Alligators

Doechii won the Grammy for Best Rap Album for Alligator Bites Never Heal, but she also should have won the coveted and definitely not fictitious "Best Alligator Handling" award for the way she held Coconut on the cover!

(Yes, it's this Coconut.)

And the best part? She released a BTS video showing how they shot the cover, meaning that we can see more than just the still image! If a picture's worth a thousand words, video's worth... a lot more. (Sorry if it autoplays I don't think I have any control over that either way)

So, using the photoshoot images and video as evidence, let's take a look at how Doechii handled this alligator very well! I'm going to go into excruciating detail here because I think it's important to know why something is good just as much as it is important to know why something is bad. It's hard to understand alligator body language a lot of the time, so in this writeup, I will address how Doechii's holding the gator and what she's doing right, as well as point out how you can tell from Coconut's reactions that she is not distressed.

Body Support

In the album cover image, Doechii is seated, which is good, because even though she's a small alligator, Coconut is a very strong and powerful creature. That tail is pure muscle! But even in the standing images, you can see that Doechii is giving Coconut great body support and holding her correctly- close to the body, but without grabbing too tightly or being restrained uncomfortably. I think for a gator of this size I would have recommended pinning the back foreleg against her body for a little additional support and movement restriction- but I don't think she had to restrict movement because Coconut seems quite relaxed!

In the seated image, Doechii has one hand under Coconut's chest, supporting her sternum and head. The other hand is on top of her tail, and her knee is under the pelvic girdle. This type of hold lets the alligator feel safe; remember that these are aquatic and terrestrial creatures. An insecure hold that risks dropping them is going to stress them out and make them uncomfortable. By holding the alligator gently against her body and not squeezing, she's avoiding any uncomfortable pressure.

Head and Throat Support

In all of the images, Doechii is bringing her hand under Coconut's neck, creating a cradle with her hand so that the alligator can rest her head. But what she's not doing is she is not squeezing or grabbing the throat. The throat is one of the soft bits of an alligator, and squeezing it too tightly is very uncomfortable for them. But the way Doechii is supporting her gives her several degrees of freedom to move her head if she so chooses.

Body Language

Another indication of good handling is that it's clear that Coconut is not uncomfortably stressed. Alligators express displeasure with being held in a lot of ways, including struggling to get away, hissing, and holding their mouths open. (If you want to know more and see my sources, you can read my post on alligator body language. LOTS of info there, including peer-reviewed ethology sources that explain what alligators do and why they do it! Go get your data-driven answers!)

But Coconut isn't doing that; she's calm and alert. You can see in the BTS video that she's active on set. She's not shut down, and when she wants to walk around, she's not restrained. Obviously the video is an edited timelapse, and it's not the whole story- but when people show alligators in media, they usually don't know enough about them to edit out any uncomfortable body language. So I think that if she had been upset, we would have seen that.

We can also see in the video that Coconut is unbanded, meaning her mouth was not held shut. I thought they might have banded her and then edited the band out for the cover, but no, there was nothing restricting any distress cues. Banding is usually done for public safety, but the facility Coconut's from... doesn't do that, so I'm not surprised she's unbanded. At least it gives more evidence that she's not trying to gape!

One more good indicator that Coconut was comfortable is that she's got her eyes open, which you can even kinda see in the video if you zoom in. Reptiles will often squinch their eyes shut to avoid distressing stimuli or signal distress, and albino alligators have even more reasons to do this. They're much more sensitive to light than their pigmented counterparts. But it looks like her on-set work was completed quickly, meaning that she didn't have to be around bright lights for long.

In conclusion:

Doechii's album cover is an example of good alligator handling. Yay!

That said, please note that this is only about handling and is divorced from any other issues surrounding this particular alligator. (Read the body language post if you want more on that.) These are not issues I'm touching in this post, because that's not the point! I simply want to point out an instance of good handling and how you can identify relaxed body language in an animal that is notoriously hard to read when posted on social media.

Watching how the media has been treating this case is absolutely fascinating. We (Black ppl) have been saying this shit for years. But now since the public’s reaction to the CEO of the shittiest insurance company in the country being murdered ranges from apathy to “good” and ppl are calling out how they’re obviously trying to make an example of him so the rest of the Poors don’t get an ideas, they’ll admit to their biased coverage. The ruling class must be a little shook.

If Luigi here had gunned down a room of kindergartners, they would’ve been plastering pictures of him with friends and family in articles about mental health (lol) and asking where his life went wrong. Instead they have this man doing pap walks surrounded by FBI agents with rifles and calling him a terrorist for killing one(1) piece of shit. Dylann Roof murdered 9 Black people IN A CHURCH and was taken to Burger King after he was arrested.

You’ll never get me to feel bad for the CEO of United fucking Healthcare.

Most classic reaction whenever someone with a certain social standing who already receive plenty of attention existing as they were the moment they come out as queer in whichever way: they're doing it for attention and it's a phase.
